For this reason, as a business and as anglers, Living Waters Fly Fishing supports the removal of dams on the Snake River.”
“There are lots of great TU Business members who support our efforts, but I can think of only a few who do as much for TU as Mike and Laura Geary.”

When I first joined Trout Unlimited and became engaged in environmentalism in the early 90s, the catch and release ethic was so much a part of our ethos that it took on a moral, almost religious quality.
